It’s that time of year, Navy.
You know what to do.
Think of the wounded servicemen whose lives will be improved by your donation. Think of the sacrifices they made in your name. Think of the service.
Think of the dog!

Targets of Opportunityblog advertising is good for you Credo"Sign on, young man, and sail with me. The stature of our homeland is no more than the measure of ourselves. Our job is to keep her free. Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke “You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”--General Sir Charles Napier "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex Amazon AssociateFor the Effort!Winnar!

I thought you shot the dog last year.
Cover of the Harvard Lampoon in the early 70′s, if I recall correctly that far back.
Nope, it was the National Lampoon. I may still have it around somewhere in the attic.
Sorry Navy, made my donation to Army.
Go Army, Beat Navy… at something.
Thanks Paul, just made mine for the Navy. : )

I’m thinking of donating to the Air Force team this year… just to hear the gnashing of teeth
Whatever we all do – donate. According to Maj. Chuck Ziegenfuss – the original inspiration for Valour-IT – the organization is out of money.
Donate please. To any team.
Thanks for reminding me, Lex and Kris. I try to donate enough for a voice operated laptop computer [I think it's $600] whenever I can afford it. They are needed, really needed.

P. S. Lex … that poor dog looks really really nervous. Have you been aiming that gun at him ever since last year?
Here you were so nice to that “grumpy old homeless man in a cat suit” that you built him a cat house on your birthday. How could you change so fast?

Hmmmm seems that Army is leading by ohhhh 1200 bux.
Go Army, Beat Navy… for once.
Ohh look, now Army is winning by 1500.
Thanks RonF, it was far back to there. A cultural trophy if you still have it.
Ding Ding. Via the Navy Team.
